Freckles

I've had a bit of a disappointing 4 days! I feel like a child who for the first time in his/her whole life got made fun of for having freckles or for being taller than someone else or whatever. Life sails on, when you are a kid, with nary a thought that there might something "different" about you that will cause someone else to point out this "flaw". Then that sinking feeling that happens when you try to come to terms with the fact that life will never be the same now that you know you have freckles and other people may not - you might be different!!! Well, it's been that kind of 4 days for me. I'm too emotional to give specifics so I'm turning it over to God and I'm going to try and let it go! If I only had a $1.00 for every time I let it go and then took it back! Now, I'm going to go kiss my kids with all of their millions of freckles on their little faces!

About Me

I am a stay-at-home mother of 3 - Murphy is 16, Briege is 14, and Keagan is 9. My husband died in March of 2007 and since then I've been trying to honor the struggles of single parenthood while also gleaning how to become a better person because of it! Along the way, I've learned that my lessons in this school deal with all of the aspects of my life - being a mother, being a friend, being a sister, being a daughter, being a child of God, and being a friend to Lazarus. Now it's time to learn how to be a wife all over again!! I can't wait to continue to grow with my new husband and our children.
